Benjamin Franklin of Wichita is Proud to Serve Bel Aire, KS

Water has always been central to Bel Aire's story, and that's no coincidence. Farmers first settled the area in the 1860s, drawn by the open land on the edge of Wichita. But it wasn't until the early 1950s that the community began to take shape as we know it today. Tom Pearson, a wrestling coach from Oklahoma, purchased land here with plans to farm, but quickly ran into a problem every property owner in the area knew well: reliable water supply. When Pearson approached the City of Wichita to connect to their water system, he was turned away.

That rejection sparked something bigger. In 1955, Pearson and several neighbors petitioned Sedgwick County to establish a local water improvement district, essentially building their own infrastructure from the ground up. It was a fitting beginning for a city that would spend the next three decades fighting for its independence. In the early 1980s, Bel Aire and Wichita went head-to-head in a two-year legal battle over Bel Aire's right to incorporate. The case went all the way to the Kansas Supreme Court, and Bel Aire won.

At the time of incorporation, Bel Aire had fewer than 2,500 residents. The landscape was mostly farmland and wheat fields, and that was exactly the point. Residents had come here for country living with city convenience just down the road. The nearest McDonald's was at 13th and Woodlawn; the closest grocery store was over in Park City. The local teenage hangout was a convenience store called Shopeze at 45th and Woodlawn. It was a tight-knit, self-sufficient community, one that had already proven it could solve its own infrastructure problems when it had to.

Today, Bel Aire has grown into a thriving suburb of Wichita with modern homes, expanding neighborhoods, and all the plumbing demands that come with them. At Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, we're proud to serve a community with such a strong history of knowing the value of good water. Whether you're dealing with hard water buildup, aging pipes in an older home, or need a new water heater installed, we're here 24/7, 365 days a year.

Fun Fact: Located in the heart of Kansas, Bel Aire averages 225 sunny days per year – more sunny days than Florida!

Quick to respond with same day visit. Reasonable estimate and next day installation of two replacement water heaters. Step by step communication was very personable. Would highly recommend.

Shannon Degenhardt

Brandon was very informative and honest. We learned things we knew nothing about as newer home owners.

Jim O'Callaghan

We were very blessed to have such an expert as Mike come to our house to troubleshoot our hot water heater. The man is a consummate professional, has decades of experience, knew exactly what he was doing, did what he needed to do, and we couldn't be more pleased to have had this absolute expert come to evaluate our water heater. As soon as we met him, we knew we were in good hands. He'll be back in 2 days to replace the hot water heater. Thank you so much!

Justin Faulkner

Great communication when trying to schedule and when in route. Answered my questions and explained options before starting. Completed the work, verified it was fixed and cleaned the area when he was done. (Kitchen sink clog - more than 25’ from the sink)

William Whitehouse

Justin did a great job unclogging my kitchen sink. I tried to do it myself and evidently it went up the vent at the T instead of going down into the clog. Hopefully it will not clogged again but if it does and I can't get it I will be calling again. This is the 2nd time I've used Ben Franklin Plumbing and am happy the the fast response and courtesy of the plumbers. I recommend Ben Franklin Plumbing to anyone I know needing a plumber.

N Peterson

Chris is very upbeat and personable. He showed up on time and was very knowledgeable and got everything done the same day that we needed repaired and replaced. I’m very pleased with his work and would highly recommend Chris for any future plumbing projects.

Meghan Z

Incredible job well done. Thank you to our plumber Adam who confirmed our suspicions and went above and beyond for our toilet repairs. We live in a new build and the installs were not sufficient. Adam was able to properly apply two wax rings for each toilet and reinstall with no extra caulking needed. I appreciate his extra attention to detail on the partial flushes and answering our other questions. Wonderful to work with and will be using again for other tasks that might come up.
